Fall and winter weather outlook for Chicago
As we move into the fall months, the NOAA Climate Prediction Center is forecasting above-average temperatures and near-normal rainfall for the Chicago area. Typically, fall in Chicago sees a steady drop in temperatures, from an average high of 75.5 degrees Fahrenheit in September to around 48.4 degrees Fahrenheit by November. Rainfall remains consistent early in the season, with both September and October usually seeing over three inches of precipitation. By November, that amount drops slightly to about 2.5 inches. The first signs of snow also tend to arrive in the fall — with Chicago averaging about 0.2 inches in October and 1.8 inches in November — but with warmer-than-normal temps expected, snow may once again be delayed. NOAA defines "meteorological fall" as the period from Sept. 1 through Nov. 30. Looking ahead to winter, defined by NOAA as Dec. 1 through Feb. 28, Chicago could see a wetter-than-normal season, with temperatures expected to remain near average. This winter outlook is influenced by the potential development of a La Niña pattern, which occurs when cooler-than-average sea surface temperatures are observed in the eastern Pacific Ocean near the equator. La Niña shifts global weather patterns, and for the Midwest, including Chicago, it typically brings a more active jet stream over the Great Lakes. This can result in more frequent storms and above-average precipitation for the region, while much of the southern U.S. tends to remain drier than usual. On average, Chicago receives around 38 inches of snow each season, with January standing out as both the coldest and snowiest month. Highs in January generally stay in the low to mid-30s, while lows often dip into the teens and 20s. While near-normal temperatures are expected this winter, the influence of La Niña could still bring more snow and precipitation overall, especially if the pattern strengthens in the coming months.

Maryland Braces for Hot, Humid Stretch With Storm Chances Midweek
Maryland is in for a classic August weather pattern this week — hotter, stickier, and with a better shot at afternoon thunderstorms as we move toward the weekend. High pressure, which has been keeping things quiet, will drift offshore by Tuesday. As that happens, heat and humidity will build, setting the stage for more summer-like days and nights. Monday's highs reached the mid to upper 80s, with heat indices in the low 90s thanks to a noticeable jump in humidity. Dew points have climbed a good 10 to 15 degrees compared to Sunday, pushing into the upper 60s and low 70s. Tonight will be mild, with most spots staying in the upper 60s to low 70s. Patchy fog may form overnight, especially in low-lying valleys. By Tuesday and Wednesday, highs will climb into the upper 80s and low 90s, and in the more humid spots near the Chesapeake Bay, it could feel close to 100 degrees. Overnight lows will stay muggy, especially along the I-95 corridor. Storm chances will start to tick up Tuesday, especially for western Maryland, and become more widespread on Wednesday as a slow-moving cold front approaches. While severe weather isn't expected to be widespread, storms could produce gusty winds and heavy downpours, raising the risk for localized flooding. The front is expected to stall nearby Thursday into Friday, keeping the heat, humidity, and daily storm chances going. Highs will stay in the mid 80s to low 90s through the end of the week, with warm, muggy nights. By the weekend, storm chances may ease a bit, but isolated pop-ups are still possible, especially near the Bay or in the mountains. Another front could arrive early next week, bringing the next round of unsettled weather. Bottom line: Keep the umbrella close, drink plenty of water, and be ready for Maryland's version of "dog days" summer.

Heat-related early releases, closures possible as Poudre School District begins new year
With forecasts calling for high temperatures of 97 degrees on the first two days students return to school for the start of the 2025-26 school year, Poudre School District is reminding the community of its protocol for heat-related early releases or school closures. The district will consider, but not necessarily implement, two-hour early releases or full-day closures for all elementary and middle schools and alternative high schools other than its three mountain elementary schools, whenever: The HeatRisk Index for Larimer County, as determined by the National Weather Service, is at the red (major) or magenta (extreme) levels NWS forecasted highs of 95 degrees or above for ZIP code 80525 NWS forecasted highs of 90 degrees for three consecutive days, including weekends, for ZIP code 80525 'The meeting of these conditions does not automatically result in a heat-related early release or closure,' the protocol on the district website reads. 'As these decisions are made, the district will notify staff and families.' Schools subject to heat-related early releases and closures include all early childhood programs and elementary schools other than Livermore, Red Feather and Stove Prairie, all middle schools, Centennial High School, Polaris Expeditionary Learning School and Poudre Community Academy, according to the district policy. PSD's traditional high schools — Fort Collins, Fossil Ridge, Poudre and Rocky Mountain — all have air conditioning and would remain open, as would Timnath and Wellington middle-high schools, Poudre Global Academy and Transitions Pathways programs. Conditions at the mountain elementary schools will be monitored but remain in session unless otherwise noted, the district policy reads. The NWS forecast Aug. 11 for the 80525 ZIP code for Aug. 13, the first day of school for sixth- and ninth-graders in PSD, and Aug. 14, the first day of school for all students in the district, called for a high temperature of 97 each day. PSD is adding air conditioning to all of its school buildings that don't have it with money from the 2024 debt-free schools mill levy that was approved by voters. But it can only complete a handful of schools each year because of financial constraints and the availability of contractors to perform the work, Chief Financial Officer Dave Montoya has said in multiple presentations to the Board of Education over the past two years.
